A smile, laugh, meaningful letter and a sweet gesture can lighten up your day when you feel down and alone. The feeling of having someone to lean on and be that “medicine” to brighten up your day, energize you, help keep things calm, and just be with you to push through the day is more than enough. 

Real medicine heals our bodies, mentally and physically. It is supposed to heal us and fight whatever is bothering us. Like real medicine, love heals us from being alone as we find comfort, peace, and happiness in other people. Ashley Puckett’s “Medicine” perfectly describes what love can do to us as it becomes the cure for our aching hearts.
